The Heart of the World

Crew
Directed by Guy Maddin


WINNER, Best Experimental Film, National Society of Film Critics, 2000
WINNER, Best Short Narrative Film, Golden Gate Awards, 2001

Voted one of the best films of 2000 by both The New York Times and The Village Voice. Guy Maddin's acclaimed, award-winning short created for the Toronto Film Festival is a brilliant, breathless parody of silent Soviet propaganda films.

The Heart of the World is available on the DVD of TWILIGHT OF THE ICE NYMPHS and as part of the QUINTESSENTIAL GUY MADDIN box set. (Currently out of print).
